”If it isn’t Du Fang and the others, then who could it be? Could it be that my initial investigation was completely wrong? Impossible!”

Qin Tian muttered to himself in the room, recalling the words that Tie Shi said just before his death, ”Tie Shi clearly said it was someone with the surname Du, how could there be a mistake?”

Qin Tian recalled Tie Shi’s words before his death: ”White Fox... Du... Du...”

He kept repeating these words in his mind, and suddenly, his eyes lit up!

”Du... Du... this isn’t about someone with the surname Du, it’s... Governor?!”

Upon coming to this realization, Qin Tian’s mind instantly exploded with a thunderous noise!

The Long Yin White Fox, hidden within the City Guard Army and never showing their face, is Governor Xiao Zhan?!

How could this be possible!

”This... White Fox is Governor Xiao? Bloody hell... Bloody hell...”

Qin Tian rubbed his hands, feeling exceedingly incredulous.

However, this disbelief only persisted for a minute. The more he thought about it, the more Qin Tian began to believe it!

He not only believed Xiao Zhan was White Fox, but also that Xiao Zhan likely already knew of his Dragon Yin identity!

Thinking it through backwards, Qin Tian suddenly understood everything.

When Dragon Yin Tie Shi was captured, Xiao Zhan ordered Qin Tian to guard the prison, it wasn’t unintentional, but a completely deliberate arrangement!

All along, Qin Tian was repeatedly promoted by Xiao Zhan, even to the extent of receiving rank advancements, originally thinking it was due to military achievements.

Now it seems military achievements were only one aspect, it was likely Xiao Zhan had an intention for doing so, and that was the main reason!

Standing in the room, Qin Tian remembered Xiao Zhan’s instructions to him from the previous days.

At the time he couldn’t understand why Xiao Zhan chose to trust him during his most critical moments instead of relying on his longtime direct lineage Lei Shi.

Now, everything has an answer!

Qin Tian and Xiao Zhan, they were both Dragon Yin!

Xiao Zhan didn’t want to actively connect with the Dragon Yin of the Imperial City, but he wanted to help newcomer Qin Tian who was also eager to climb up!

Qin Tian now wanted to know what was inside the Storage Bag that Xiao Zhan gave him, but since Xiao Zhan specifically instructed not to look until anything happened to him, Qin Tian managed to restrain himself.

Qin Tian spent the whole night sitting on the bed, feeling that the situation was too fantastical, too unbelievable, and that the White Fox he was hunting turned out to be his superior!

”On that day, it was almost as if he was saying goodbye to me, explaining everything, suppressing his words, saying I would understand in the future... unexpectedly, so soon, I’ve already figured it out.”

Thinking carefully, Qin Tian frowned instantly, ”Governor Xiao explained everything... also said not to open the Storage Bag unless anything happened to him... even sent me outside... could it be that Governor Xiao foresaw something?”

Thinking of this, Qin Tian quickly rose from his seat, ”Did he foresee something would happen to him?!”

At this moment, Qin Tian felt an extremely bad premonition, and immediately decided to head to Sea City to see Xiao Zhan.

”I need to tell him that I’ve figured out his identity. I want to work with him to carry on our mission, to overthrow the Tianyuan Dynasty!”

Qin Tian left the room and told Zhao Lanjin about his mission to Sea City, then he set out alone at night towards Sea City.

The next day before dawn, Qin Tian arrived at a hillside dozens of miles outside Sea City.

Standing on the hill, he looked at the sight of Sea City in the distance, eyes wide open, drawing a breath in shock!

The fire was from inside Sea City, while the exterior was still calm.

Qin Tian disregarded everything, using the Flying Technique to head towards Sea City, but as he neared, he was intercepted by the Flying Beast Soldiers defending Sea City.

”Stop! Flying Technique to enter the city? Seeking death! Get down!”

A Flying Beast Soldier shouted.

”I am City Guard General Qin Tian, move aside!”

Qin Tian revealed his Token and shouted.

The two Flying Beast Soldiers examined Qin Tian’s Token and looked at him.

A Flying Beast Soldier spoke, ”General Qin Tian, apologies for the offense. There are military regulations forbidding entry into the city using Flying Technique during the night, please do not make it difficult for us.”

Indeed, there were such regulations in the army.

So Qin Tian said no more, directly landing on the ground, entering the city on foot.

After entering the city, Qin Tian headed straight to Xiao Zhan’s residence.

After a few miles, he saw clearly that the fire was from Xiao Zhan’s mansion!

”This is not good!”

Qin Tian darkly exclaimed, realizing the worst-case scenario had indeed happened!

He rushed to Xiao Zhan’s mansion only to find it aflame, and Lei Shi holding a knife, urgently shouting.

”General Lei, what on earth happened?” Qin Tian approached to ask.

”Qin Tian, why are you here? Our Governor has been assassinated! Dammit, assassinated!” Lei Shi exclaimed anxiously.

Qin Tian asked, ”What happened? Our Governor’s cultivation is so strong, how could he be easily assassinated? Even the mansion is burned down, the assailants are too brazen!”

”I don’t know, all I know is that when I received word and arrived with the troops, the Governor had already perished in the fire, and the entire mansion was ablaze! I’ve already ordered the town-wide search for the assassin, this definitely wasn’t done by one person, surely a whole group was involved! They couldn’t have fled far, couldn’t have left the city!”

Lei Shi wielded his knife and shouted, while Qin Tian, gazing at the spreading flame over the Governor’s Mansion, clenched his fists tightly!

Ultimately, he came too late! Ultimately, things escalated!

”Governor seems to have known he was in danger long ago, he should’ve known... but why didn’t he leave... take measures...” Qin Tian shouted in his heart.

Boom!

At this time, Lei Shi suddenly knelt on the ground beside him, yelling towards the Governor’s Mansion, ”Governor, I came late! I am guilty! Boohoo... Governor!”

As Xiao Zhan’s direct lineage, Lei Shi cried vehemently, tears flooding, even Qin Tian was deeply moved.

”General Lei, there’s no point in saying more now, we need to avenge the Governor! We must preserve the strength of our City Guard Army, we can’t let it be annexed!”

Qin Tian pulled Lei Shi up and said.

He was, naturally, referring to Zhao Tuo and the others.

Now with Xiao Zhan in trouble, Zhao Tuo would surely become more arrogant, and the City Guard Army, leaderless, might face disbandment!

Lei Shi stood up and said, ”I have the same idea. Qin Tian, have you brought your forces back? We must combine our troops, otherwise we can achieve nothing.”

Qin Tian replied, ”I came alone tonight, my troops are still in Xiaochi Town.”

”Then quickly bring your men here, if delayed, Sea City might slip beyond control!”

”Alright, I’ll return to bring them over right away, General Lei, hold strong!”

Qin Tian said as he turned to leave the city.

He did not notice that as he departed, Lei Shi’s lips curved into a strange smile.
